Privacy Policy

We are committed to protecting your privacy, respecting the confidentiality of the information that you provide to us and informing you of your rights in relation to your personal data. From 25 May 2018 we will process your personal data in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation.

Why we collect your personal data

The purposes for which your data is being collected may include:

Communicating with you about an event for which you have registered

Facilitating your company’s relationship with Enabling Innovation on an ongoing basis, including keeping a record of events and projects your company has participated in

Complying with the monitoring and reporting requirements of our funders

Enabling Innovation processes your personal data in accordance with the Data Protection Act and in line with the Data Protection Policies of the 3 university partners (University of Derby, University of Nottingham & Nottingham Trent University). From 25 May 2018, we will process your personal data in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation.

The universities may share your personal data, including your sensitive personal data, between colleagues and departments who legitimately need access to that information in order to carry out their normal duties to support and facilitate your relationship with the universities. (For example, if you attend an event as part of the Enabling Innovation programme, that data will be shared with colleagues also involved in delivering the programme to enable us to effectively administrate the programme.) Your data will also be added to the universities’ Customer Relationship Management systems to enable us to effectively manage our relationship with your company. Within the universities, a number of different teams and departments may be involved in interacting with your company and the individuals within your company. By maintaining a record of your interactions with each university, we aim to avoid duplication of contact and to provide a more streamlined communication process.

How long do we keep your data for?

The Enabling Innovation partners will store your personal data in accordance with their records retention schedules and in compliance with the requirements of the programme funders, the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF).

When will we share your data with third parties?

We will only share your data with third parties with your prior consent. For example, if you are participating in a funded project with multiple delivery partners such as the Enabling Innovation programme, we will share your data between the programme delivery partners to enable us to effectively administrate the programme and comply with the reporting requirements of our funders. You will be notified of this data sharing arrangement at the point at which you enrol in the programme.
